Stephen Walling
Quatrieze (Contemporary Landscape Photo Collage 3D Wooden Wall Sculpture)

2012

About the Item

24 x 36 x 3 inches acrylic, wood & photo collage on wooden panel Dynamic and unique landscape collage on three dimensional wooden wall sculpture. This abstract, modern three-dimensional wall sculpture was made by sculptor, Stephen Walling, in 2012. The artist created the work by intricately carving strips of wood in graphic square patterns that are then painted with acrylic and collaged with an image of a tree line stripped of its foliage. Each piece is then adhered to a solid wood panel backing. The sculpture pairs well in any decor, especially with a mid-century modern aesthetic. The squares of wood are carved at different depths in a linear, crosshatching pattern so a playful and graphic three-dimensional effect is achieved. This piece changes depending on which angle you are viewing it. Color is visible from all angles, adding an interactive element to the piece. About the artist and work: Stephen Walling demonstrates a trained eye with wall relief sculptures of colorfully painted wood strips and blocks, intricately carved and composed into graphic arrangements. Although Walling’s sculptures are crafted around a dedication to color and shape, his newest body of works reveals a shift in inspiration and evolution in studio process. In earlier work, the artist took his cues from nature; representational forms based on the shapes of trees, slopes of the Catskill mountains and even aerial views were most prevalent. He also experimented with photo-collage, pasting images of back lit forests on varying heights of wood. More recently, Walling has found increasing comfort in the possibilities of abstraction. Walling now follows a kind of ‘mind-map’, influenced by almost anything and everything, when creating a new sculpture. The premeditated image leads Walling to the selection of all colors, shapes, and arrangements. Recent work demonstrates a fascination with light and shadow. Individual pieces of intricately carved wood unite to create various shadows that work to create a dazzling optical illusion. Ranging depths of wood are often enhanced with color painted on different sides of each block. This hint of color encourages the viewer’s eye to travel throughout Walling’s surfaces as perspective reveals transitions in palette and shadow.
